Bible fact: Holy Trinity not in Bible.

As far as the Bible goes, There is no Trinity in the Bible. The word
itself is not there, nor a definition of it. The Trinity is taken from
a 4th century made up doctrine of uninspired men. (2 Tim 3:16) This is
long after the Bible was written.

The pagan nations around them also had their Trinities. For example
Egypt:

There was Amen, Mut, and Khonsu.
There was Khnum, Satis, and Anukis.

The Trinity is presented as a mystery. Yes, it is a mystery that
anyone would believe it. 3 = 1, 1 = 3. Mt 28:19,20 mentions 3 things.
Just because it mentions 3 things doesn't make it a religious Trinity.

What if I say "me, myself, and I". Does that make me a religious
Trinity also?

Two of the three elements making the Trinity have names. Where is the
name for the Holy Spirit? There is none because it is not a person. It
is just personified like Wisdom is. (wisdom has children; Luke 7:35)

In order for God to be a Trinity, all three elements must be equal,
which is what some Creeds say. Yet the Bible says they are not all
equal.

- King James
John 14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come
again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go
unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.

-- King James
1 Corinthians 11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every
man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of
Christ is God.

But what about John 1:1? "the Word was God". It is an error in
translation according to Greek translation rules. (for the rule, just
ask) It should be 'The Word was a god', which is what some
translations show. (but not many)

This has, ultimately, ended up being the position of most of
Christendom: That the Trinity is true even though itAs
incomprehensible; faith is the only way to accept it.

Then we should do the same for Zeus or Ra. Just accept them on faith.
Right? Notice:

"This doctrine has been a stumbling block for Christians (and others!)
since its inception. That it was constructed not out of a desire to
understand God, but from a vendetta against a heresy (e.g. Arianism),
is perhaps what makes it as nonsensical as it seems. It was not
designed as a rational theology; it was designed only to refute other theologies." (http://www.earlychristianhistory.info/trinity.html

The Bible doesn't have to use the word "Trinity" to teach that one God
Being manifests in three distinct persons.

rCo The Bible teaches there is only one God Being (Deuteronomy 6:4,
Isaiah 45:5, 1 Timothy 2:5).

rCo The Bible teaches three distinct persons are God (Matthew
3:16-17, Matthew 28:19, 2 Corinthians 13:14).

rCo The Bible teaches that God exceeds human research and
comprehension (Job 11:7-8, Isaiah 55:8-9, Romans 11:33).

Jesus is God: christrose.news/Jesus-God.

The solitary true and saving gospel is that Christ died for our sins and
rose from the grave (1 Corinthians 15:1-4; Galatians 1:8-9). Any
modification of this gospel is false and leads to conscious, eternal
torment in the lake of fire (2 Thessalonians 1:8-9; John 3:36;
Revelation 14:11; Revelation 19:20; Revelation 20:10-15). Unless you
believe Jesus is God, you will die in your sins (John 8:24).

Jesus took our place on the cross to settle our debt with God
(Colossians 2:14), and God confirmed the acceptance of this payment by
raising Him from death (Romans 1:4). Thus, God remains holy while
justifying the ungodly (Romans 3:26) and shielding them from future
wrath (1 Thessalonians 1:10). This blessing is a free gift given to
those who believe (Romans 6:23). Place your confidence in Christ and
call on Him for salvation (Romans 10:9-13):
